The Final Lap Weekly: Kyle Busch Hospitalized and Racing’s Biggest Weekend Is HERE!
The Final Lap Weekly is loaded this week as Kerry Murphey and Toby Christie break down a massive week in motorsports!
SVG does it again on the road course with a huge Watkins Glen win, proving once more that Shane van Gisbergen is becoming one of NASCAR’s most dangerous road-course weapons. Plus, Denny Hamlin captures the NASCAR All-Star Race at Dover, adding another major moment to his already headline-filled season.
Then the show shifts to breaking news: Kyle Busch has been hospitalized with what has been described as a “severe illness” and will miss the Coca-Cola 600 weekend at Charlotte Motor Speedway, with Austin Hill stepping into the No. 8 Chevrolet.
Rowdy Dragon stops by with Fantasy NASCAR Picks for the Coca-Cola 600, and the crew previews the biggest racing weekend of the year: Formula 1, the Indianapolis 500, and NASCAR’s marathon crown jewel, the Coca-Cola 600 from Charlotte Motor Speedway. If you love racing, this is the weekend — and this episode covers it all!
This episode is dedicated to my mom, whom I lost on the race morning of Watkins Glen weekend. She was a huge NASCAR fan and Tony Stewart fan; she will be missed. -Kerry
